Rain and Freeze Sensors for Residential, Light Commercial, Commercial
Wireless rain sensors conserve water by suspending irrigation during rainfall, and the wireless rain/freeze sensors also reduce the damage to plants and danger to walkways caused by ice buildup by interrupting irrigation when the air temperature drops below a predetermined set point. Taking water management to the next level, Irritrol's proven RainSensorTM Series makes watering in the rain a mistake of the past. The reliable wireless and wired rain sensors conserve water by preventing irrigation during or after sufficient rainfall, while the wireless rain/freeze sensor also helps reduce vegetation damage and icing conditions when the temperature drops below a predetermined set point. With its compact design and host of convenient features, the RainSensor Series is the perfect compliment to any standard controller.
The controllers listed below, when combined with Irritrol's CLIMATE LOGIC Weather Sensing System, successfully completed the Irrigation Association's "SMART" controller efficiency testing for climate-based controllers. The listings are posted on the Irrigation Association's SWAT (SmartWater Application Technologies) website.
